Estranged From The Womb

Can you understand the doctrine of total depravity more clearly tonight? Take the total and complete corruption and defilement of original sin with you, as you and all men and women by ordinary generation are by nature sinful and wretched creatures in Adam. Seeing this, how wonderful the love and mercy of Christ is to you who are in Christ! For though you were just like them, hateful, malicious, venomous, refusing to listen to the powerful warnings and sweet arguments, Jesus died for you and ransomed your soul from the snake pit! Praise God today, for you were doomed to be crushed, but God and God alone snatched you from the fire!
